Correct! A friend describes them as "rats with feathers." However,
this pigeon is native, not one of the ubiquitous imports. Sorry you
didn't find it interesting. They come so rarely that I haven't caught
one in flight when their band tail would be evident.
An earlier post suggested sharpening the head and doing some
cropping. I thought of that, but didn't bother for this display.

Pigeons and seagulls are rats of the sky in my vocabulary, but I
don't hold that against this one. It's just that there's nothing
bird-ish really happening in this image. So, OK. Got anything more
interesting?
